Agilent/Keysight 5347A

The Agilent/Keysight 5347A is a dual-channel frequency counter and power meter combining microwave measurement capability in a portable instrument. Input 1 covers 500 MHz to 20.0 GHz with sensitivity down to −32 dBm (500 MHz to 12.4 GHz) and −27 dBm (12.4 GHz to 20.0 GHz). Input 2 extends low-frequency coverage from 10 Hz to 525 MHz at 25 mV rms sensitivity. The power meter operates across 0 MHz to 20 GHz with −70 dBm to +20 dBm range, sensor-dependent, delivering 50 dB dynamic range in 10 dB steps.
